Poetry in Translation (CCXXX): Anonymous, ENGLAND, “Tristia ex Londiniae”
Tristia ex Londiniae
To say I think of You, for
Ever, it is True!
Am like a lion in a cage, the
More I pine for our Trysts,
Of Treasures that I missed!
Day after day,
I’m hostage in the jaws
Of Love that ever was!

LAMENT
Gone are the hopes
In morning’s mist,
Unfolding
London’s spell,
In all my dreams.
Of days gone bye,
Am longing
More and more…
Of our trysts
Do hope, in vain,
In one more night
Of love!
(Chelsea, November 16)
